. Containment electrical penetrations and penetration conductors are l

protected by either de-energizing circuits not required during reactor j

operation or by demonstrating the OPERABILITY of primary and backup l

overcurrent protection circuit breakers during periodic surveillance. The 480 volt air frame protective devices utilize electro-mechanical overcurrent elements which are mounted on the protective device and, in some instances, protective relays to trip the protective device. Actuation of the overcurrent element or relay will trip the protective device. The molded case protective devices utilize magnetic or thermal-magnetic overcurrent elements which are contained in the protective device. Actuation of each overcurrent element l

will trip the protective device.

I TS 3.8.2.3 Action *b" requires the performance of SR 4.8.2.3.a.1 within one hour and at least once per 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br /> thereafter for a loss of one of the I

required full capacity chargers.

If any Category A limit in Table 4.8-2 is I

not met while a charger is inoperable, the associated battery bank shall be j

declared inoperable.and ACTION *a" entered. The Category A limits in Table j

4.8-2 specify the normal limits for electrolyte level, float voltage and specific gravity for each designated pilot cell. When TS 3.8.2.3 ACTION *b" is entered without the associated battery bank being on float (i.e. charger not connected to the bus), pilot cell float voltage is determined by measuring I

pilot cell voltage. The term," full capacity charger" as used in TS 3.8.2.3 is j

defined as a charger that is capable of supplying an output of 2 300 amperes.

not met while a charaer is inoperable, the associated bettery bank shall be l

declared inoperable and ACTION "a" entered. The Catecorv A limits in Table l

4.0-2 specify the normal limits for electrolyte level. float voltaae and 1

specific cravity for each desionated pilot cell. When TS 3.8.2.3 ACTION "b"

is entered without the associated battery bank beina on float (i.e. charaer not connected to the bus), pilot cell float voltaae is determined by measurina Dilot cell vo]taae. The term "tull cacAgity charcer" as used in TS 3.8.2.3 is defined as a charcer that is capable of scoolvina an outout of 2 300 amoeres.
